Experience

Chandler may be a newcomer to the Daily Meal team, but he's no stranger to food writing. He started his culinary career working in kitchens while studying sociology at UC Santa Barbara. His fascination with food history and passion for writing continued beyond college with his experience in restaurant public relations. He was the social media content and press release writer for a Las Vegas-based company, PR Plus, which worked with a variety of high-end dining establishments. After moving to New York, Chandler began a personal writing blog for recipes, food reviews, and editorials. While working at a local fine wines and spirits shop in Hell's Kitchen in Manhattan, Chandler met James Beary. The two began producing the podcast "Was That in Good Taste," a show about the history of the spirits industry and future beverage trends.
